Vancouver Canucks vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction
The Oilers have won 6 of the last 9 games against the Canucks, and they’re going to get an even more inflated price here, playing at home. However, we’re getting plus money with a Canucks side that blasted the same Flames team that beat the Oilers in overtime. Yes, sports math isn’t real, and it shouldn’t be factored into your handicapping, but while still trying to figure out teams and small sample sizes, it is worth mentioning. With a chance to make 1.5 times our money, I’ll take a stab with the Canucks.
